I may be off but I think it's T6 for the small screws and T8 for the pivots.

That's right. I use the Benchmade blue box kit. It's a really handy, good quality little kit that is about 20 bucks if you look around.

So the BM kit will work for my K3?

or u can go to home depot and buy a precision torx kit for about 6 bucks. Thats what i use, and it works on all of my knives (kimuras, benchmades, ccc's, whatever) Unless you want to pay the extra 15 bucks so the case says "Benchmade" on it instead of "Husky" .. :P Dont get me wrong, i love benchmade and constantly mark-out to their knife making ability, but the screwdriver i use to adjust my knives doesnt have to say Benchmade on it. Lowe's also carries them, but there you will be looking for "Kobalt" brand instead of "Husky"
Hope this helps.
